This place was recommended by a local and it was delicious. We only got one plate and it was enough for 2. The waiters were super friendly.

Stop here on our way to Vegas. The service was welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere was cheery. They were playing holiday music very upbeat. The food was hot and delicious. They service us promptly and they greeted us as soon as we walked in. Great place the menu has a variety of choices to pick from.

Ate at John's Place on Monday, 2/10/25 at around 5 PM. The setup is unique where you can either order at the counter or receive full table service. This was quickly explained to us upon our entrance into the restaurant . The food and service were excellent. We had the fried mushrooms, Greek salad and pastrami sandwich. The portions were large for the price and we left full. The salad was fresh, pastrami shaved thin and mushrooms plentiful. Our server was attentive and checked on us throughout our meal. If your looking for a homemade meal and excellent service, I'd recommend John's Place. Note, if you want to leave a tip for the server, you must leave cash at the table.

Best burger I’ve had in a while. Big, juicy, and made to order medium in less than 15 minutes. Friendly, kind and caring staff. Also had the chocolate milkshake, yum. Kind of malty, not too sweet. Coming here next time I visit!

Had a fabulous breakfast, I had pancakes and hubby had a breakfast special. The food was great and the service was friendly and timely. This was also the cheapest meal we have had on our road trip. Highly recommend this for a meal stop.

We love this place - John's Place, I should say. It's on our route from Las Vegas to Palm Springs, so we stop from time to time for delicious casual comfort food like cheeseburgers, fries, fried zucchini, pastrami sandwiches, etcetera. Lots of choices available in these categories (burgers, sandwiches, sides). It's definitely worth a try if you're driving by.
